Kind of the opposite lmao. Apple has put so much effort into making game development on the Mac. Even developing frameworks such as Metal. It's actually developers who are hesitant to support the Mac which makes sense since they wouldn't want to waste resources on a small market.
@@gerardrosalesthere’s literally no reason to develop with mac’s developing frameworks as mac users are such a minority of the gaming market.

Thank you so much, this was absolutely fantastic. I wasnt able to play Genshin ever since i got my macbook and using geforce literally took hours waiting in the queue and it was impossible. I wish i found this video sooner because now i can play, thanks again, the instructions were very clear
It will always bother me why macOS hasn't gotten a proper Genshin Impact support despite it being extremely similar to the iOS version. All they'd need to do port the iOS version with the additional graphical features of the PC version.
It's not about that unfortunately, the amount of money they'd generate from the Mac release vs. the cost of QA testing, customer support etc. they'd need to provide doesn't work out for them.
@@jwarendsen It's fundamentally the same game with no real additional coding needed. It would be incredibly cheap for them to do. After all the M1 and M2 are already on iPad Pro so it's not the chip causing any expensive rewrites. Plus there are other small annoyances besides that like no controller support on Android and no high frame rate options on any other platform besides iOS and iPad OS. This is annoying since the other platforms are all capable of clearly hitting well above 60fps whether it be higher end Android phones or PC and PS5. Hoyoverse is just making things annoying with all these exclusive features to one platform
@@crestofhonor2349 "no additional coding needed" then how would you explain all the work that has gone into the Play Cover app so that the game can be run? Are you saying Play Cover doesn't do anything? If apple were to port to Mac OS it would be as simple as you are making it out to be, otherwise there wouldn't be any need for apps like Play Cover to exist.
@@knightwik Play cover is a way of making those games that disabled to run on MacOS to work again. Apple intentionally made it very easy to make a game or application work on both iOS, iPadOS, AppleTV OS, and MacOS. Afterall they are all basically using the same silicon and using the same API. Hoyoverse intentionally said no to allowing it on MacOS for whatever reason. It's not like your porting it to an additional platform like from iOS to android where not only is the hardware different but they use a very different operating system and graphics API.
@crestofhonor2349 that's not how it works unfortunately. Up until now, there's so many mobile titles that can't be run natively in m1 macOS despite available on iOS appstore. There's still need some works to make sure the delivery on macOS version is as good as other versions. it has to be on par with windows version. This iOS version is awkward af to play on macs... completely different with the smooth gameplay on windows version for pc/laptop experience. The controller support on iOS is also half-baked on genshin, since it's not support gyro controller
We are trying to move away from being only about Genshin, although that will always be the cause of PlayCover's creation and will stay PlayCover's most popular game for a while.
thank you so much! your instructions were so clear and everything works perfectly. i had genshin on my 64gb iphone and it took almost 25gb of space, playcover is such a lifesaver!!
wow, what a detailed explanation. I thank you for sharing this, but just imagine me, who has zero knowledge in anything IT related, downloading a software I know nothing of, changing codes in the system program, repeatedly shutting down and turning on the Mac and repeatedly opening and closing Genshin sends chill down my spine. What if something goes wrong with my Mac, I'll have no idea how to fix it. I once downloaded a Windows system on my Mac to play genshin, but the specs of my Mac is too low that even on the lowest quality of everything Genshin still lags and my Mac heated up like crazy.
In 8:40, Genshin is showing XBOX symbol instead of PlayStation symbols in-game. This can be fixed by changing the name of the controller to DUALSHOCK 4. After the rename, it'll show PlayStation symbols.
i give gratitude to you, the man, Andrew Tsai, for showing PlayCover and to the team behind PlayCover for making iOS gaming on Mac enjoyable and possible
what i found from using the new playcover is that the temps when playing genshin impact rose up by a FUCK TON. Before I updated to 2.0, I was using the 1.0 version, everything worked fine and the temps were always between 50-60 degrees. Mind you it is the same version of Genshin Impact which is 3.3.0. Then after I updated to the 2.0, the temps rose up to the 90 degrees range like...yeah...it utilizes more cpu power for more performance...but why is there no option to limit the cpu usage?? Like there is no need for MORE POWER since the M1(mine is an M1 Macbook Air) is already insane and is capable of running Genshin while capped at 60fps. What I am trying to say is that....please....WHY use more cpu power AND cause the already fragile MACBOOK batteries to fucking blow up for using MORE UNEEDED POWER??
50-60c is not cause for concern. :) also computer cpus are designed to operate at high temps. the macbook air since it doesnt have a fan will probably just throttle a bit. turn res down if you can
50-60 is pretty normal. Temperatures only start becoming of major concern >80. The T_JUNCTION of most modern CPUs is 100 degrees which is when the CPU will immediately start significant throttling to stop damage to the CPU.
The thing about playing on Mac is that it inherits the very poor render distance from playing in mobile (i.e. the details of objects at certain far distances). This is understandable so that mobile SOCs can still play the game by not loading too many assets into the open world. This is unlike in PC or console where you can still see good details on those beautiful landscapes. You have a bigger screen on a Mac laptop/desktop, so the lack of detail gets magnified and thus more noticeable. Whether it ruins your personal experience or not is up to you.
This may help few but just letting everyone know that you DO NOT need to disable and re-enable SIP, Genshin Impact works perfectly fine! (At least for me...)
12:25 --.. i skipped to the end .. so sry if i missed something but you wrote in timeline ''4k120hz test'' .. and your tool shows your game runs at 1638x1023. (only 80.81% of of Fhd and faaar away from 4k)

Hi, umm, I am kind of facing a problem. I did everything as said above in the video, but after a few days when I try to log in my account it says “parameter error”. Everytime that happens I need to delete Genshin and PlayCover and start again. Any way to fix this, if possible? I found the error particularly when trying to switch between my Genshin accounts on the loading screen. :((
I’m really upset.. I tried installing playcover and it worked and I played Genshin for a while until it for some reason when I opened Genshin in playcover it kept crashing upon opening now I reinstalled it hoping it would work but it didn’t I disabled SIP did the terminal code thing and I tried everything and it still didn’t work I tried the new application you could use for Genshin but it needed 170 gb of storage and that’s literally insane..
Hi, this is absolutely amazing. Very detailed and I didn't even consider using a controller to play. I just have one problem. I'm using a ps5 controller and whenever I touch the touchpad of the controller, the game quits. Which is bothersome as it's very easy to accidentally touch it. Also, when I'd connect the controller to bluetooth and press any button on the controller, the game would crash (but it doesn't if I use a wire to connect the controller to my mac)
I wanna side load it on my mac so bad but I’m terrified of my account getting banned cause Hoyoverse will ban you if they notice you’re running it on not officially supported hardware
I am only able to save the keybinding as txt no matter what and no prompt came out when i removed the .txt it just auto saves as .txt once again. What do i do?
They've recently updated the nightly version of Playcover to work without disabling SIP and also without Xcode. Tested it and it worked. For anyone interested in Playcover, now would be a good time to try it out. Ran into a bug where I couldn't launch Genshin but a restart of Playcover fixed the issue.

I have given up trying to understand Apple‘s decision making process in regards to games. They literally killed gaming on the Apple TV. The Apple TV can run all the same games as that was on iOS, but they put so many limitations and now there’s nothing but Apple Arcade dreck on the Apple TV.
Not Apple's fault. Diablo Immortal devs could have literally checked a single box that would have allowed this game to run natively on Apple silicon Macs, and they chose not to.
The only decision Apple made here is to allow app developers to opt out (which I understand). However, seems like pretty much all popular app / game developers have decided to opt out, which I find really annoying.
Hey im not sure if its just me but whenever i try logging into genshin it says parameter error im not sure why beacause ive done all the steps do you think you could help?
Thank you so much for such a great video. Why should I change the ratio from 16:9 to 16:10? With the PlayCover 3 beta, I have an auto option at resolution. Should I turn it on.
Hi andrew the link to the ipa library does not seem to work anymore or the file wont download. Does anyone have another Ipa link to add or working one please
Is this limited to 3 apps and subject to the 7 day period like sideloadly? This is what is keeping me on 11.2.3 as I can just sideload through Apple Configurator and not worry about an app limit or refreshing.
If you have a Mac that had a starting firmware of less than macOS 12 then yes 11.2.3 is the best choice for longevity, however you are limited to 4:3 iPad aspect ratios and no kbm keybinding support.
This does not have a limit and will never expire. Some apps do not work being sideloaded with Apple Configurator and a lot of them will not run but PlayCover fixes a lot of these issues. Please keep in mind though that a lot of apps don't work with PlayCover but work using Apple Configurator.

@@sula_967 yes tell me how do you solve it
Mine kept saying that the ip of the game wasn’t correct or with other games it said forbidden do you know how to fix this???
it keeps crashing, what do I do?
Thank you so much for such a great video. Why should I change the ratio from 16:9 to 16:10? With the PlayCover 3 beta, I have an auto option at resolution. Should I turn it on.
Hi andrew the link to the ipa library does not seem to work anymore or the file wont download. Does anyone have another Ipa link to add or working one please
Is this limited to 3 apps and subject to the 7 day period like sideloadly? This is what is keeping me on 11.2.3 as I can just sideload through Apple Configurator and not worry about an app limit or refreshing.
If you have a Mac that had a starting firmware of less than macOS 12 then yes 11.2.3 is the best choice for longevity, however you are limited to 4:3 iPad aspect ratios and no kbm keybinding support.
This does not have a limit and will never expire. Some apps do not work being sideloaded with Apple Configurator and a lot of them will not run but PlayCover fixes a lot of these issues. Please keep in mind though that a lot of apps don't work with PlayCover but work using Apple Configurator.
can someone tell me how to update the game
can confirm logging in with twitter you can skip all that terminal stuff and SIP disabling.
confirm it then tell us how to do it.
@@razorbackroar link your account to your twitter from mihoyo site.
and just select login with twitter from the login screen.
no need for the terminal+SIP method.
@@Twisteditup love you bro
Do i need to disable SIP and do the terminal stuff to log into basic social apps like Instagram, Tiktok, Netflix?
Hey Andrew I'm getting the peremeter error in genshin impact please help!
I tried logging into my main account and it keeps saying invalid parameters

I used Game Center to log in but I seem to have started from the beginning. I’ll trouble shoot and see if there’s a fix. When I do I’ll let you know
I still have login issue (parameter error) even i disabled sip
Before i did managed to login but then logout itself but i coudnt login again (even i disabled sip again). any luck?
By the way i upgrade my macos to ventura 13.2
I’m facing the same issue
just one question, when i happen to make an update, do i need to follow the setup process everytime from zero or do i just uninstall the old version and load in the new one?
there is a problem that my mac updated to 13.2 beta and i open genshin the windows view cant see the whole picture😢
hi. I would like to ask, upon updating versions, should I disable/enable again sip or not necessary anymore?
hey! I got a problem, the game runs perfectly well, but it doesn't let me access to the wish tab, like the game immediately shuts down, is there any way I can fix that?
why isnt control working for me, i have my ps5 control it connects but when i select control on the game it doesnt work
tysm i love this tutorial
what happens when you need to update the game? does it just do it automatically?
does anyone has a problem in the latest MacOS version where it won’t work?
Same here
Hi, I've run into a problem where every time I enable SIP the game simply does not open, and I'm not sure what to do to be honest. I've logged in and everything, but the second it get to that one point it simply never works. any help would be much appreciated
thank u so much for this video, but is there a way to exit the game from key maping other than restarting the device?
I followed what u did and after the nvram thing, I still can't open my genshin since it always crashes it said "GenshinImpact quit unexpectedly" please help me T-T. What should I do? btw I think I have the newest version of playcover the yellow one and the decryptkit thing. thank u!
nvm i just deleted all of my data on previous versions, then it all worked out! phew
Great tutorial. I got my Nintendo Switch Pro Controller connected to my iMac via Bluetooth, however when I go to the in game settings and go to control type the controller option does not appear.
I would appreciate any help. Thank you.
Hey! I'm having some issues with the keymapping section. I downloaded the same file through the download option, but only half of the keybinds work. for example, i can't use slot 1, clicking on no. 1 allows me to use the second character, i can't use the slot for the 1st character and I'm not sure why this is happening. I'm on an M2 btw.
what can I do to fix this? Please tell me
greaaatt video.. I only have one question: do I have to disable SIP and enable again for every game I install or do I have to do it only once
Every. It’s because the game won’t sign in without doing it.
when I go to import the key mapping and I go to click on the file to import it, it doesn't let me open any of the files.
hi @Andrew Tsai !
